Gluten-Free Restaurants near West Des Moines, IA

“We don’t usually pick chain restaurants but this one is an exception. Great food, service, atmosphere & location. We come here every time we come to Des Moines shopping. Never disappoints! Pictured is the lettuce wraps. My favorite dish! Served as an appetizer but enough food to make it a meal.“

“G.migs is one of the best places that I have eaten the servers were amazing �“

“Had a small group (9pp) attending an informal Porsche car club pre-drive planning meeting at Biaggi's last night. I had made minor arrangements with Jeff Duncan (Managing Partner) and Whitney Webber (Event Planner) and they were most professional and accommodating to my requests. Pleasure to work with! The food and drinks were very good and and our server Tiffany did a great job being professional, attentive, and personable. The pricing of the menu items is surprisingly low to me providing an exceptional value as well. Highly recommended!!!“

“Love this place! So many choices and all delicious and homemade!! You can't be disappointed- especially if you're hungry!!“

“It was ok. Nothing special.“

“Super yummy & a fun experience! :) The place was also super clean & the staff were really friendly. Ignore the Karen's in the other reviews, I don't know who expects a froyo place to have highschoolers who aren't a little shy. They're just beginning to enter the workplace and they're human too, lay off and stop being so entitled.“

“Stopped in today for lunch — the gal who was working the front was just wonderful. So welcoming and attentive. Very refreshing to experience great customer service these days. Food was made fast, fresh and tasted as expected. Prices are ridiculous but that’s not a reflection of the staff.“

“Had a great experience here. Food was great, we got two appetizers and two pizzas. We brought our children (2 &5) and they shared our appetizers and pizza and they loved it. I had read previously that someone said it smelled a little like the cigar bar. I did smell that right when I walked it but it was very faint. My husband thought it smelled like a hotel pool. I didn't even notice it after a couple minutes. Someone else has mentioned they wished they had diaper changing stations in the bathrooms. They don't in the women's, but there is also a Family Bathroom that does have a changing station. My only couple complaints is that it seemed like there were only two employees running the whole front of house and so it took us a while to get told to sit wherever we wanted and then to get greated after we did sit. Service was good after that. Also, while everything was great, it is a little pricier. One specialty pizza, one two topping pizza, a spin dip, garlic bread, and two bar drinks (rum & coke and whiskey & coke) was $90. We would go back for sure, it's just seems more like a splurge treat than a place we would be able to afford regularly.

Kid-friendliness: Diaper changing station in family bathroom, kids menu options. No one seemed to mind the kids.“

“The burger was excellent and they have a large selection of sides. The waitress was friendly, quick and efficient. My husband’s first time there, will definitely visit again.

Parking: Kind of a strange setup, the parking is in the rear and you have to walk around the building to get in.“

“Fantastic food that is ready quickly. They also take celiac disease seriously.“

“We chose Molly’s for our wedding cakes and boy did people really chow those down. The cakes for our guests were amazing, but our wedding cake was more than I could have ever imagined. They took my inspiration pictures and executed beyond belief. The cake was incredible to eat and to look at. We were speechless. I would recommend Molly’s for weddings and in general as all their items are so delicious. Thank you so much!!“

“I forgot to make a review when I bought this, so better late than never! I came in with a custom cake order for my best friend who recently had a major surgery. To make her feel better, she requested a cake, and being the silly people we are, I requested they put an inside joke on top of the cake. It turned out amazing!! Service was great, prices are great, and it was delicious! I can't wait to go back and order more yummy things. 😊“

“I’ve ordered from FreshFit many times, including delivery and pickup. Delivery has been excellent. Friendly delivery person, efficient and organized. When I’ve been in the store (Urbandale), it’s been clean and organized with friendly staff present. The menu items I’ve ordered (mostly poultry) has been great! Nice quality, and I typically buy a little extra for the freezer. I like the nutrition labels on the product—makes meal planning quite easy!“

“The food was so good and our experience was exceptional! We had our baby with us and the owner took time to make her some food and spend time talking with us! I can’t wait to go back!“

“Absolutely Perfect Cut! All dishes were the finest portions! Loved the crab cakes and the salad bar is one of the best!“

“this is a fantastic place!!! food is incredible, atmosphere is awsome, and the owner is top notch. if it is a large group of a date this is the place to go“

“Very nice and very nicely MOPPED floors 😁. Very handsome young man working there I believe he went by the name Drewann or Andrew 🧐 not quite sure. He was really polite and I would LOVE to see him again 🥰. Hopefully he’s on the menu next time I go 😘.“

“I’ve been going to fresh fit for almost 2 years now and while I don’t write reviews often, these guys (and gals) more than deserve it. The convenience of their meals is unlike any other place, and the food is honestly amazing. I love coming here post gym for a protein shake, and stocking up on nutritious food and snacks so I can keep my calories in line. Whatever your macros are, they’ve got something that tastes great. The staff are the best, with amazing recommendations and incredible service. Incredible place that will always have my business.“

“We were staying in down town Des Moines and made the drive to Norwalk to Pyra. Well worth the drive“

“Amazing food and at a reasonable price and not a bad wait time.“

“The food is amazing, especially the Lo Mein! It is very authentic and delicious. The staff are so kind, welcoming, and give you a speedy service, especially Haven. She always has a huge smile and makes you feel so welcomed. They really make you feel like family and give you the most delicious food ever!

Dietary restrictions: They have plenty of vegetarian options. I would recommend the vegetable fried rice or vegetable lo mein.“

“Great food and drinks! Service was fantastic, thank you to Cory and Zoey!! The kitchen team was hard working!!“

“Simple stated, Incredible“

“Last week was my 1st time here, but the staff treated me like an old friend. & the pizza was amaaazing. While waiting for my food, there was a little girl who was dancing & fell (she was alright). The staff were very kind to her & even gave her a big cookie to have for dessert!“

“We loved the tamales and carne asada nachos! Definitely recommend if you are in the area. This is a hidden gem inside Merle Hay Mall Food Court. Didn’t get pics because we were too busy enjoying!“

“Picked up lunch here today. So good!“

“Suzie makes the best cakes in all of Des Moines. I asked for a chocolate and raspberry cake for my birthday, and she did not disappoint! It was not only delicious but also super cute, topped with frosted flowers and sparkles! I recommend Suzie for all of your homemade baked good needs!“

“I couldn’t really rate the atmosphere due to it being delivery, but we got a supreme thin crust and Parmesan breadsticks and the food was so good! What they say is true. The pizza IS great and you will LOOOOOOVE their breadsticks. They were perfect. Also, I wanted to mention that our delivery driver gentleman was fantastic! He called to verify our location because GPS was taking him to the wrong city. He was very friendly and professional on the phone and in person! We will definitely order again-especially because of the delivery person.“

“Menchie's is the ultimate frozen yogurt destination, perfect for visits with kids, friends, or family dessert outings. The establishment is safe and clean, with a self-serving setup that allows you to take your time choosing the number of toppings, your preferred flavor, and whether you need more. The array of frozen yogurt options caters to all tastes, including seasonal flavors that vary but never disappoint, but their typical options include Take the Cake Batter (a personal favorite), Reese's, Dreamy Dulce De Leche Blackberry Burst, German Chocolate, Harvest Pumpkin, and Chocolate Dipped Banana, among others. If you're undecided, you can request a sample cup to taste all the flavors or even mix different yogurts into one cup. Once you've settled on your frozen yogurt flavor, you face the great wall of all the glorious toppings you could ever imagine, or had never thought of before. The candy toppings section is where you can find gummy bears, candy balls, cookie dough, brownies, mini cheesecake bites, fresh fruit, dried fruit, walnuts, peanuts, whipped cream, marshmallow fluff, hot Hershey syrup, fudge, Oreos, animal cookies, and more. They also give you a sturdy reusable spoon that you can take home with you (the kids love using those spoons for their cereal). They ensure every taste bud is satisfied and you'll leave full and happy. Give it a try, and you won't be disappointed. Enjoy!“

“The crew working this morning was interrupted by me needing a sandwich communication was perfect I was fine with waiting while they got a huge order started. Once they got me going I always get the number one and ask for mayo but they always douse my sandwich in mayo this crew even took the time to spread out my guacamole. Someone who does hvac service work I appreciate the attention to detail everyone working this morning is outstanding at there job and deserve more then %15 which was all I could offer at this moment I appreciate your time“

“It was my first time in, and the staff was super friendly and helpful! Food was fresh and healthy!“

“BEST pizza and wings I have ever had and that alone says enough! The cheese topper pizza is to die for and the wings are beyond amazing. Everytime I promise myself to take a picture I eat over half before i even remember. I can't believe I went this long without knowing this place was this AMAZING! It's worth every dollar EVERY time!“

“My family and I love the brunch they offer on the weekends! So delicious, wide variety of food and drinks, and very reasonably priced! We go with our 3 young kids usually when we take a trip to Des Moines, so very kid friendly! Amazing seating as well, just love the overall vibe! Highly recommend!“

“Oh my goodness, this was the VERY best experience at Blaze Pizza we have ever had. Eric is fantastic, super friendly and very professional. We came in after having a rough time while visiting in town and the two people working made sure our pizzas were top notch, with everything we wanted. We don’t come here often as they are not in our town.“
